A port-based VLAN is a group of ports on a Gigabit Ethernet Switch that
form a logical Ethernet segment. Each port of a port-based VLAN can
belong to only one VLAN at a time.
You need to specify which ports will be members of the VLAN. In the case
of a tagged VLAN, it is usually a combination of both untagged ports and
tagged ports. You specify which ports are tagged and which are untagged
when you create the VLAN.
An untagged port, whether a member of a port-based VLAN or a tagged
VLAN, can be in only one VLAN at a time. However, a tagged port can be
a member of more than one VLAN. A port can also be an untagged
member of one VLAN and a tagged member of different VLANs
simultaneously.
Creating a VLAN
Use the VLAN command to create a VLAN and enable it. The syntax of
this command is:
vlan <2-4094> name NAME state enable|disable
The following commands create VLAN 4 with a name of “Eng2” and
enables it:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# vlan database
switch(config-vlan)# vlan 2 name Eng2 state enable
For more information about this command, see “VLAN” on page 267.
Adding Untagged Ports to a VLAN
To add untagged ports to a VLAN, you must specify a VLAN that you have
created already. Also, you must specify a port in the Interface mode. The
syntax of this command is:
switchport access vlan VLANID <2-4094>
The following commands assign VLAN 2 to port 8:
switch#configure terminal
switch(config)#interface ge8
switch(config-if)#switchport access vlan 2
For more information about this command, see “SWITCHPORT ACCESS
VLAN” on page 187.
